The concept seems to be lifted from the dreams of everyone who loved platforming during the PlayStation 2 days. Three of Sony's biggest mascots--Ratchet, Jak, and Sly--team up in PlayStation Move Heroes to thwart a band of malevolent aliens.Robots programmed to tear you to shreds close in on all sides, and you make smart use of whips, wrenches, and pistols to blow them to smithereens. If you catch a glimpse of Ratchet gunning down foes in Metropolis or Sly sneaking around with his trusty crook on the streets of Paris, you may even think this is the dream-team collaborative effort you've been waiting for. However, after only a few minutes of messing around with this Move-enabled minigame collection, it's clear that this is much closer to a nightmare. Similar-looking environments and repetitive objectives make it seem as if you're doomed to a Sisyphean fate, while unresponsive melee controls enervate your enthusiasm. Shining flashes of predictable entertainment intermittently pierce through the dull gray sky, but PlayStation Move Heroes is predominantly a boring endeavor unworthy of its fantastic starring cast. The action is broken up into five distinct parts. Melee, whip-wielding, and shooting make up the combat portions, whereas bowling and disc throwing are akin to intergalactic sporting events. No matter which activity you choose, your goal is to collect a set number of items or destroy the advancing robot army. The action segments are set in small-scale arenas that are unfortunately beset by a number of issues that drain much of the fun.It feels strange to gun down enemies as Ratchet without being able to initiate his patented leaping strafes, and your lack of agility becomes a serious problem when you're surrounded by attackers with no way to quickly move away. The melee and whip controls are also maddeningly inconsistent. You need to shake the controller to strike down attackers at close range, and it's troubling how often this simple action doesn't register. The sporting events fare a bit better than the fighting forays. Bowling goes beyond what you would expect from a typical 10-pin competition. Once you toss the ball, you control its direction by pointing the controller, and you need to slide around obstacles and up ramps to smash the intended targets. Snaking through a treacherous obstacle course is a neat twist to the normal sport, and though the controls don't always respond to your actions, they're reliable enough to get the job done.You earn medals based on how well you perform, and trying to achieve gold in most events does extend the longevity a bit and provides some satisfaction.Even if you weed out the bad portions, Move Heroes struggles to hold your attention because the good events quickly overstay their welcome. Uneven controls make it a chore to compete in some of the events, and the entire package is hurt by the crushing repetition. It's still fun to control an airborne disc or shoot down idiotic robots, but that mild entertainment is not worth suffering through the rest of this adventure. Ratchet, Sly, and Jak deserve much better than this uninspired collaboration.Read full review

Radically fun and entertaining game. This game has great graphics, challenging levels for all ages(my 3 yr old can't get enough). If you play this the way it is designed, it can be a workout as well. Can't say enough good things about Heroes. A must have for any PS fan.
